Jessica Joelle Alexander | What Denmark Gets Right About Childhood6 Aug1 h 32 min

Jessica Joelle Alexander is a bestselling author, researcher, and expert on Danish parenting, education, and child wellbeing. She is the author of The Danish Way of Parenting and The Danish Way of Education.

Jessica joins Marlon to explore what Denmark gets right about raising happier, healthier kids: from protecting free play and respecting children's perspectives to making wellbeing an essential part of education. Together, they look at how pressure, competition, and narrow definitions of success can shape childhood, and what parents and educators can learn from the Danish emphasis on trust, empathy, belonging, and letting kids be kids.
